varum mayil oththavar eevAr mA muka(m) mathi ena vaiththavar thAvA(tha) kAmikaL: They are like peacocks walking at a leisurely gait; when they sight any person with a loose purse, they put on a beautiful face like the full moon; they are such non-obtrusive lovers (implying that they are never truly passionate);

varisaiyin mutRiya vAku Ar Am iyal madamAthar: They adhere to some kind of orderliness; these whores are beautiful, dexterous and soft;

mayalinil utRu avar mOkA vArithi athan idai pukku avar ALAy neeL nithi tharu iyal uluththarkaL: being enchanted by them, I have sunk deeply into the sea of passion; even though I have given away my entire property to them under the spell of their hegemony, these tight-fisted whores stand like a tree without a tinge of grace;

mAdA mA mathi mika mUzhki: indulging in carnal pleasure with these women, I am drowned absolutely with no sense whatsoever;

tharu para uththama vELE seer uRai aRu muka nal thava leelA kUr udai ayil uRai kaith thala seelA pUraNa: Oh Supreme Lord with the greatness of showering grace, Oh Lord with six hallowed faces, Oh Performer of many sacremental sports, Oh Holder of the sharp spear, Oh Virtuous and All-inclusive Lord,

thiririri thiththithi theethee theethithi thokuthoku thoththoku thOthO thOthiku thimithimi thiththimi jEjE theethimi thothitheethO ena: To the sound of "thiririri thiththithi theethee theethithi thokuthoku thoththoku thOthO thOthiku thimithimi thiththimi jEjE",

ari maththaLam meethu Ar thEm muzha thidu ena: Lord VishNu loudly beat the drum at the place where all percussion instruments were being played on;

mikku iyal vEthAvE thozhu thiru nadam ittavar kAthE mUdiya kuru pOtham urai seyyum uththama veerA: and BrahmA, the most competent Lord, kept the beats in His hands and offered worship while He danced the Cosmic Dance; You made that Lord SivA cover His ears with His palms to hear ardently Your preaching of the Supreme Principle of Knowledge, Oh Supreme Master, Oh valorous One,

nAraNi umaiyavaL uththara pUrva AkAra aNi uRu jaka rakshaNi neera AvAraNi tharu sEyE: She is NArAyaNi, UmAdEvi, the Primordial Goddess guarding the cardinal directions like the North and the East, the protector of the universe and One who has the Power of Supression (thirOthAnam); and You are the child delivered by that Goddess PArvathi!

uyar varam utRiya kOvE AraNa maRai mudi viththaka thEvE kAraNa: You are the Lord that bestows great boons upon devotees; You are the Wisest One seated on top of the VEdAs and the Upanishads; You are the Causal One, Oh Lord!

oru mayilaip pathi vAzhvE thEvarkaL perumALE.: You are seated in the matchless town of Mylapore*; You are the Lord of the celestials, Oh Great One!
